    A Modifier I would find entertaining (to watch) and I am just throwing an idea in the room, without knowing wether or not it was already considered: A Stratagem Roulete, bring in a randomized Set of Stratagems. New randomization each Mission. But I also like the "doing both factions" and "Doing all Side Missions" ones.

    One the chargers armor is broken (the color changes and you see flesh), you’re much better off shooting it in the weakened spot with your primary.
    The stun grenades from the new battle pass make chargers significantly easier to kill. It’ll stun titans as well.
    The mission also gets a lot more challenging if you start doing side objectives so I think you should add those in.
    All of the bots feel pretty fair except for the rocket guys. I enjoy fighting them more than the bugs even though they’re more challenging.
    I’m still playing level 7 against both after the patch but it’s definitely tough.

    Pro tip, guys. The Railgun can be switched into Unsafe mode by holding R then hitting RMB. You fired several safe mode shots to remove the limb of that Charger, where one 95%+ charge Unsafe mode shot would do it. We got confirmation from Arrowhead as well, that Unsafe mode isn't just a bit more damage for the risk of the gun exploding. It's a multiplier on damage, and 99% is considered 2.5x damage and able to pen medium armour. Note: Safe mode (default) on the Railgun isn't able to pen armour at all.

    Someone may have already mentioned it or you now know but the bugs that look like big hunters are stalkers and you need to find their nests immediatly, they are super strong. just watch what direction they come from to find the nest. Love the vid, good luck with the roadd to helldive!

  • @CMCFLYYY
    @CMCFLYYY 3 місяці тому

    "It was only until after we'd completed all the main objectives that we started to have a bit of drama."
    This is by design.
    Difficulty is managed in this game by patrol spawns, which march towards your last location at the time they're spawned in, with the goal of having one of those patrols stumble on you so they can call in a breach. The higher the difficulty the shorter the default time between patrols spawning.
    Obviously the more patrol spawns that pop in looking for you makes for a higher chance that you bump into a patrol, which then creates a breach and spawns heavies. Then while you're sitting in place fighting that breach off, more patrols find you and result in more breaches etc. This is why it can sometimes feel like an endless wave of enemies to fight off, because patrols keep finding you while you're busy fighting off the last breach.
    Things like side objectives and killing nests/factories raise the spawn rate a little. I believe you can kill half of the nests/factories without affecting it, but every one you destroy after that increases spawns.
    BUT the biggest factor that affects patrols spawning is....completing the main objective. Once you do that patrol spawns QUADRUPLE. This is done because the game assumes after you've done the objective you'll be heading to extract, and they want a fun "fight the horde off" extract.
    So this is what happened in that 3rd mission where it was All Quiet on the Western Front...until you completed the main objectives.
